Blackburn foodbank is part of the Trussell Trust national network of foodbanks, providing a minimum of 3 days worth of nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people in crisis in Blackburn.We collect non-perishable food which is donated by the public through churches, schools and supermarket collections. Front line care professionals e.g. social workers, doctors etc refer people to the foodbank with a voucher which is exchanged for 3 days worth of food. Over a chat, a meal and a drink we listen and signpost clients to other agencies for support.

Story

We are thrilled to announce we are organising a Waterside Head Office football tournament to raise funds for our local food bank and to carry out a charity act in memory of our dear colleague, Junaid Dalal. This tournament is not just a personal challenge but also a heartfelt tribute to someone who was passionate about football and helping others. The funds raised will be split equally, with half going to support the food bank and the other half dedicated to a special charity act. This event is our way of celebrating a life and continuing a spirit of generosity. Together, we want to support the most vulnerable children, young people, and families in our society and make a difference in our local communities.
